I dared to ask the question on the Farcebook and was shot down how dare I make such an enquiry the club will tell us when they are ready - so it's another Watson who will be back for the start of the season or even worse a Kris Tassell situation.

In unrelated news I've been watching a documentary on Jim Jones

Farcebook! I like it!

Tassell never actually played for us, did he, Steve?

I hope the two new guys are in the squad for Sunday.

The cult (or change 1 letter) have their select 20 or 30 members for high fiving each other and comparing their club doncaster shrines to each other, they're rules are clear 1. No questioning the regime 2. No wanting of information 3. You shall say praise to Baldwin and Hall on the hour of everyday.

Hence my reference to the Jim Jones documentary

No DM Kris Tassell never played I am not sure he even trained with the club, I did read an article last night about Fonua that the reason for returning to AUS was so he could be with his young family, and he's signed for McKay Cutters for next season so is he really going to fly halfway round the world to play 4 maybe 5 games for The Dons?

Faraimo is more likely to feature if he has his visa sorted out but again for 4-5 games it seems odd.

I wouldn't trust Hally to sign his name.

I have joked for years about the quality of side we could put together from players we have "signed" but never played, until they appear these two are in that side in my mind. Sam Hoare was one of my favourites, pictured at the stadium with the kit on and then played the rest of the year for Halifax

The only way it can work for me at this late stage is that they'll partner up on one side and they already know each other very well

Who is The Kitman?

If there was a guillotine emoji, I reckon you'd be a prime candidate for it, Steve!

I suspect the club will make an announcement in the next couple of days if either of the new guys aren't in the squad for Sunday.

Yes, as soon as I pressed the 'submit' button on that message I realised I might be being too optimistic!

Oh DM you sweet summer child they only announce things when they want you to spend money!

The Kit Man is Martin Rowlands so technically a club employee.
